@hoopzbaby24 My mom was lucky enough to see her perform this live (not at Woodstock), and she said it made the hair on her arms stand up, and she's still talking about how amazing it was all these years later.

Half a million people there, everyone's silent and just listening to that voice. Speaks miles about Baez's talent. An absolute legend.

Gänsehaut pur

Three words: Purity. Clarity. Sincerity.

Español: Habría que conocer el contexto de la canción, no solo del concierto, si no al cantarle al ausente: Es bello.

Envy, that's all i have to say, she's brilliant!

I had to watch this four times.

@ehswan I don't see that she's being "fancy" here; this is her voice. She sings it a cappella which is how it was first recorded by this group here: watch?v=knQvjDgRZoM
No less she is doing it solo. So you're saying that you "have yet to hear anyone do this song right"...really, have you heard the original recording from 1909 with the group at the link? She probably did one of the most true, respectful renditions of the song. No instruments. Song was written by a freed slave.
